Public Accounts Committee

Appropriation and Expenditure of Public Moneys by RTÉ (Resumed): RTÉ

Ms Paula Mullooly:

I think I can provide clarity on this because there is repeated confusion around it. There is the email of 20 February. After that email, Noel Kelly Management sent in a draft letter which was in effect an underwriting agreement. That letter was not signed. It was never signed. Why was it not signed? It was not signed because there was pushback in respect of the underwriting of this agreement.
